How did things go so wrong? It was not by accident. The Front Page Magazine article, “My Sister Kate: The Destructive Feminist Legacy of Kate Millett, A Conversation with the Feminist Icon’s Sister,” explains everything.

It’s about feminist icon Kate Millet, who died this past September at age 82. She had written the 1970 book, Sexual Politics, which the New York Times called “the Bible of women’s liberation.” The liberal media gushed over it, crediting Kate and her book with advancing sexual freedom and bringing abortion into the conversation. So using the word “Bible” to describe her book is akin to using the word “mass” for “black mass.”

The article explains Kate from her sister Mallory’s perspective, who is no lightweight having been a CFO for several corporations in New York City where she lives with her husband. Mallory and Kate grew up Catholic and were warned by the nuns that they would likely end up socialist and communist if they attended public state colleges. They laughed at those silly nuns and then fulfilled the prophecy. As a divorced and single mother with one child, Mallory joined Kate in New York in 1969 where Kate was starting up the revolutionary National Organization for Women.

Disturbing Start

At the beginning of every meeting for “consciousness-raising” was a litany of scripted goals and responses such as: “Why are we here today.…To make revolution…How? ...By destroying the family.... By destroying the American Patriarch… By taking away his power… By destroying monogamy… By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution and homosexuality!"

It was the plan all along. Through establishing The National Organization of Women, these goals would be advanced and infiltrate all of society: education, government, families, the library system, the media—everything!

Mallory was newly returned from Asia after having witnessed extreme decadence including seeing sex slaves chained to walls. She was making her way back to God and embracing our country. What she was hearing horrified her.

Even though the 12 women in the group had Ivy League degrees, Mallory thought they were out of their minds to imagine they could accomplish such vicious grandiosity. She went her own way while Kate went hers. Kate’s way included the cover of Time magazine, and the birth of Women’s Studies classes inspired by her book, in which men became society’s villains.

Under the new, radical feminism, men were considered useful for promiscuity but then abortion would let both off the hook. And if the man has feelings for his child, that’s too bad because it’s the woman’s choice whether she wants to host the baby they created together. Women were told that if they were smart, they would use men rather than being duped into the slavery and prostitution of marriage.

Decades later, Mallory related that she knows many women past childbearing age who cry themselves to sleep having aborted babies from loveless sexual unions and now have no children or grandchildren. They bought the lies and now it’s too late to reap the fruits that a life based on God and truth could have given them.

The Dark Ages

Of the deceivers the culture holds up as celebrities and icons, Mallory said: “My friend, Father George Rutler, calls them ‘the chirping fledglings of the new Dark Ages.’” Through the Communist Manifesto adapted for the Women’s Movement, she pointed out that Soviets actually won the Cold War without firing a shot, by taking over our women and brainwashing the culture.

“It's evil,” she stated. “We should be sick to our souls over it. I know I am. And so, mass destruction, the inevitable outcome of all socialist/communist experiments, leaves behind its signature trail of wreckage. So much grace, femininity and beauty lost. So many ruined lives.”

Mallory’s own view of feminism? Controversial, she acknowledges: “Men are men and women are women. They are essentially different and designed for a natural division of labor. Period.”

Mallory stated that obedience to God is the real power. Feminist greed for power is what has destroyed society, according to her, with women trying to be exactly like men. “My thesis is this: when men ran the world and women ran society we had a chance to conduct our lives in some semblance of balance” she explained, “but women have abdicated their running of society and thus, it has collapsed dramatically.”

Almost 50 years after Kate launched her sexual revolution, “Now we have girls parading about with (obscene words) emblazoned across their tee-shirts,” Mallory said.

Mental Illness

A shocking revelation was that Kate was mentally ill for as long as Mallory could remember; expelled from schools, and caught countless times actually trying to kill her baby sister (by five years) Mallory. “She was the most disturbed, megalomaniacal, evil and dishonest person I have ever known,” Mallory said. Family members tried to have her committed and even Kate wrote about her mental illness in two of her books.

Kate once held Mallory prisoner in an apartment with a butcher knife “as she raged and ranted, eyes rolling in her head, frothing at the mouth and holding chats with little green men.” The family tried to have Kate committed but she found a high-powered attorney able to keep her on the streets. Kate was once committed to a hospital in Ireland but her feminist groupies helped her escape through a window.

“Their groupthink is so dense, so full of lies, the vocabulary is so deceptive and intricately designed to brainwash, that just to witness it and their interactions from a distance is beyond alarming,” Mallory said. “After we buried our mother I never spoke with Kate again, as I’d finally come to accept that there is no honest communication with this mental illness that is today’s liberalism.”

And so here we are in the land of altered reality Kate and friends’ desired. The saddest thing is that people under the liberal spell who learn of the evil blueprint don’t care. Where we see evil and craziness, they look and say: so?

Thanks to Mallory’s accounts, we know that the path was laid from the start. Our instincts are good. This is all as it seems. Take comfort in God and the angels and saints and pray for those who are getting sucked in, for they know not what they are doing.

Thank you and God bless for bringing this to light - possibly an aspect of Satan’s 100 years that he had asked for The Lord , to grant him ; thank God that in our times , the ministry of deliverance ,including such aspects as the blessings and protection from consecrating all to The Divine Mercy, benefits of more intense prayer life etc are getting better known .
Hope that a Feast in honor of The Father would bring more of the truth of our being the beloved children of an all powerful merciful Father , into more hearts, thus to know who we are too .

Gary, we all live *in* THIS world. God created us and placed us here thus we cannot “forget” this world. We are to serve the Lord in the pathway He has led each of us whatever that may be which includes marriage for most of humanity. Marriage is also a holy covenant ordained by God, not just remaining virginal.

Adam was the head of the family. He should have told Eve, “No!’ Their failure invited Satan upon the earth. Mental illness is derived from Freud the atheist. There was no God to him. Our behavior comes from a love of God of the love of sin. Good vs evil. Women, the feminist of all feminist is the Most Holy, and Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God. I am a man, and I cannot imitate her. She was both virgin and mother. 1 cor 7, “the best way to live is as a virgin.” Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the Holy Family members, were all virgins. The greatest commandment, Love. The Holy Family loved God perfectly. BE perfect as your father in heaven.
Here set forth are our purpose in life. Some are called to increase and multiply. Many millions are called to be virgins. True Joy found in God’s way. We need to turn the tide back to God, to love, know and serve him and forget this world. I love you. Pray for me. GK

“This article is so immensely troubling in the intense cruel disservice it does for this who, through no choice of their own, suffer from mental illness.”
******************
You know, there are all kinds of mental illness & mental illness can sometimes coexist with -if not actual possession-some form of demonic influence.
A former pastor of ours used to visit the local state psychiatric hospital & on the occasions he was carrying the Blessed Sacrament in his pocket, several patients would get agitated & begin tearing their clothes off & screaming. When he did not have the Blessed Sacrament the patients would remain calm & zoned out.
I guess Satan detects any weakness or opening we give him. A theologian could give you a better explanation, but I’ve seen friends with addictions, depression & mental illness avoid the Sacraments & in their isolation go closer & closer to despair & self destruction.

Thank you, Donald, you hit the nail on the head in your response to Harry Martin.

I presented the facts on who began the women’s movement and what the goals were. I reported that the main founder was mentally ill in a big way. s that relevant? Absolutely. In 1969, the vast majority of people would have thought the plan was both evil and crazy. Yet, today, those goals have been accomplished. The liberals cheer and the conservatives see it as moral degradation and insanity to think otherwise. The examples of bizarre, evil behavior are endless, from drag queens reading at library story hour, letting men into women’s bathrooms, driving people out of business if they won’t participate in same-sex weddings, and defending an organization that rips babies out of their mother’s wombs then sells the pieces is both irrational and evil. Kate promoted all this and now the left applauds it and wants more.

People who hold to the values that were once mainstream are now attacked by the left, while the left now push values that were once thought to be insane. We have not moved, the left has.

Why are you calling me ignorant (repeatedly) for reporting the facts?
Kete was mentally ill and violent. That is a fact. Nowhere do I say all mentally ill people are violent yet you accuse me of perpetuating that myth. It seems that you are upset that the facts were reported.

I would not say in the article, “how can we do better for people with mental illness,” as you suggest because that is NOT what the article is about. You did a lot of name calling and clearly did not understand that I was reporting on some shocking facts.

BTW, I have a degree in social work and volunteered in college as an aid at a psychiatric hospital. There’s no connection between being a liberal or a conservative and not devoting care to the mentally ill. That is apple and oranges.

God bless you for your work with the mentally ill.

Mallory points out one fact: Women are the agents of society. Think about the Old West. When there were few or no women, stability was absent. There were no churches or schools. A town in the Old West could boast 8-10 saloons and brothels and no churches at all. It is only when women came in significant numbers did that situation reverse itself. There was a time when the feminist movement was about creating opportunity, now it is about shirking responsibility and playing the victim.

Martin: It is you who is being unfair. The author drew few of the conclusions you attribute to her. She merely cited the facts and what arose from them. No one is saying that the progress women have made in the past half century is unabashedly evil but neither should the aberrant aspects of feminist movement be covered up or justified.

This article is so immensely troubling in the intense cruel disservice it does for this who, through no choice of their own, suffer from mental illness. Please understand I do not agree with the feminist agenda that is viral in our culture. But to blame a whole cultural movement on one woman’s mental illness is again cruel and absurdly ignorant. To fuel the already deep stigmas and fears so many people love to embrace in their ignorance about mental illness by attaching it to their particular hated cause, agenda or people is so deeply ignorant, hateful and destructive. To state in the headline that “this mental illness that is today’s liberalism” is to project an intensity of ignorance, fear and, frankly hate that defies belief. The cruelty in this article perpetuates the myths that mentally ill people are violent. Yes they can be violent. But objective research show that the mentally ill are far more likely to be victims of violence than perpetrators. And by stating that liberalism is a mental illness implies that such afflictions are not to be found in conservative, traditionalist minds and lives. Please. Try to be a little more honest. This article raises, to me, a much deeper issue. Instead of seeking to just equate an hated liberal cause with mental illness what if, instead, we were to ask: How could we better care for and help those with mental illness? What if this particular woman’s unwell mind had been able to access real medical help and a faith that would prayerfully love her as Christ loves all wounded souls? I write this a a parent and a deacon who has been very privileged to work with the needs of the mentally ill for many years. I know how hard it is to access care and support for the mentally ill. Mental health care is a very, very low priority for many, especially conservatives. What if as much energy was devoted to their care as is devoted to being liberal or conservative?

What many women, even today, fail to realize that many of the radical positions of modern feminism simply opened an opportunity for predatory men to do what previously had been unfulfilled predations. One need only look at modern fem-porn such as the Fifty Shades series, to see how far these women have cooperated in debasing themselves.

Excellent article. I am in my seventies and so many women my age bought into “feminism” thinking we would now have “equal pay” and “equal respect” and “equal freedom” as we made our way in the world. Of course to do that we had to turn our back on God and embrace cancer causing hormones and life taking abortion and all sorts of debasement of our bodies and minds. Even something so simple as a man opening a door for us was to be disparaged because we didn’t need men. I am nauseous when I read that even today Gloria Steinem glorifies her abortion. Liberalism in all it’s many disguises and lies is pure evil.
